Liverpool 2-2 Bournemouth

Watch highlights as Liverpool let a lead slip away late on to draw 2-2 against Bournemouth and miss the chance to strengthen their grip on third place.

Goals from Philippe Coutinho, equalling Juninho's tally of 29 to become the joint top-scoring Brazilian in the Premier League, and Divock Origi appeared to have put the hosts on course to open up a six-point gap on fourth-placed Manchester City.

However, Josh King struck in the 87th minute, to follow Benik Afobe's early opener, as Bournemouth earned a point.

It was not the calamity which had consumed the Reds in the first meeting between the two sides four months ago when Jurgen Klopp's side twice squandered a two-goal lead to lose 4-3, but there was a feeling of deflation around Anfield at the final whistle.

This was the start of Liverpool's last eight matches all against teams lower than seventh - just the sort of sides they have struggled against this season - and without Sadio Mane, who has knee cartilage damage and is likely to be out for the remainder of the season, each one will be a test.
